[Lorraine Holly]

trying to find any info on a Martin O'Neill / o'neil
Born 1896 in parkes nsw Australia  to John Joseph O'Neill and Sarah Murray
all we know about Martin is he went to New Plymouth New zealand
I can't find a death for him in Australia so may be he stayed in New zealand

Thanking you Lorraine

Sorry I do not know of a middle name , on NSW birth deaths & marriages most of the children are not shown to have middle names  yet they show up on the Deaths
so it could be him
thanking you Lorraine

Hi Lorraine

Hi again

Can see a marriage for your Martin (though it's after the 1931 cut-off date which means details can't be posted in this thread.) 

There is a probate file too, for his wife (also at Christchurch Archives).

O'NEILL - Amelia Sarah - Runanga - widow - 1985
